Rebecca Ferguson struggles to watch X Factor audition: ‘It makes me really sad’

metro.co.uk:

Rebecca Ferguson admits it’s a challenge to watch back her X Factor audition from 10 years ago as she’s ‘like a different person’ compared to now.  The 33-year-old first graced our screens in 2010 when she sang A Change Is Gonna Come in front of judges Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and Nicole Scherzinger.

From then, her talent sailed her through the live shows and she finished runner-up to Matt Cardle, becoming the first female singer to do so on the ITV series.

But looking back at her humble beginnings is difficult for Rebecca, who doesn’t recognise her younger self.  ‘It’s changed loads, it feels like I’m a different person.

I’ve only seen the first audition I think about four times in 10 years because I can’t watch it,’ Rebecca told Metro.
